Evil Dead (2013)

Started by the ninjak9 pages

I'm talking about the reboot. I'm all for an Evil Dead 4 with Bruce.

The point is, if Campbell did come back & reprise his role as an older Ash, fans will be disappointed.

Campbell will either be branded as a cheap, corny sell-out if he says the same catch-phrases as a wink wink nod to his fan base OR they'll brand him, "Not as funny as before."

Fans will be expecting too much from him & if the director fails with the action & witty one-liners, it will be Campbell that the fans will place blame on.
It's a no-win situation for Campbell.

Its not that hard to do new catch phrases anyway

managed think up new one for the games & Comics.

I'm just thinking of Expandables 2.
I mean some people found it funny with the different actors using eachothers' catchphrases...I personally found it embarrassing & corny.

A bit too try hard.

Finally Time For 'Evil Dead 4'?

People I've heard talking about it said they confused gore with horror and that it has none of the fun of the original.

That's not true. It's got gore and horror both, probably a bit more of the former than the latter, but hey, I like my horror movies with some splatter. As for fun, it has lots of fun, but it's more serious than the original, as the original was made back int he day were most movies like that were campy B movies. It's got a cameo from Ash in the after-credit scene though.

More serious then the original?......😐

the original was serious

i'll check it out when it arrives in the cinemas over here, Better not get a dvd release or even a limited release in cinemas.

Last night. It was more of a gore-fest than the psychological horror crap that is prevalent these days and that fail badly at putting you on edge (The Possession, Sinister etc), so that was a plus for me, as I was expediting the former.

Definitely worth the watch if you're a fan of gore, but it's not great.

I just saw it. I like it.

Spoiler:
The main girl was a badass. Her getting the chainsaw arm and using it to kill the demon was ****ing awesome. Her brother was awesome for bringing her back. I thought for sure his plan was going to backfire.

As a fan of the original series, I really enjoyed this. I prefer the originals, but unlike most remakes, this did not crap all over the original. It was more intense and gory, but less funny. Still, an 8/10 for me.

Read somewhere unlike most horror these days this remake doesn't really use CGI

Not sure which Original Evil Dead people watched, I certainly didn't get any comedy from it.

I watched it and really enjoyed this movie.

I want to see this. I'm surprised by the decent reviews.

I still have yet to see this, but just wanted to point this out because Kaz has mentioned over and over that he has never sensed even the slightest vague humor to the original film...

[RT Consensus]

"It may lack the absurd humor that underlined the original, but the new-look Evil Dead compensates with brutal terror, gory scares, and gleefully bloody violence."

Decent horror film. Best part was that for the gore (which is substantial) they didn't use much/any CGI, it was all practical effects which made it very cool in that respect.

Definitely more serious than the original, but this one still had some moments of dark humor. Worth a watch.

Wasn't as good as the original, was decent for what we're given today though.

The HUGE threat didn't turn out to be that threatening though, did it? 😬

I blame Backfire, personally.

Evil Dead definitely had funny moments, nowhere like The Evil Dead, which was much more of a horror comedy.
